South African comedian and Daily Show host Trevor Noah has tweeted about playing a game of doubles tennis with tennis superstar Rafael Nadal, against US tech billionaire Bill Gates and tennis giant Roger Federer in February:
Hey @RogerFederer, you & @billgates want to play doubles against me & @RafaelNadal!? Okay. We accept your challenge, but be prepared for the crowd in SA to be on our side! See you Feb 7 in Cape Town! Masihambe! #MatchInAfrica
— Trevor Noah (@Trevornoah) January 29, 2020
The match is to be held on 7 February in Cape Town in South Africa as part of the Match in Africa campaign. It is being organised to raise funds for the Roger Federer Foundation.
The foundation says it "enhances a world where children living in poverty are able to take control of their future and actively shape it".
